These would go well with gold jerseys and white pants with the black and gold stripe down the side.

Re: Saints Getting New Alternative Helmets

Whoever is in charge of these decisions is horrible at their job. The Saints are leaving so much opportunity and revenue on the table with the lack of uniform combos.

Gold Helmet x Black Helmet x White Helmet x Blackout Helmet x Gunmetal Helmet

Gold Jersey x Black Jersey x White Jersey x Blackout Jersey x Gunmetal Jersey x Color Rush Jersey

Gold Pants x Black Pants x White Pants x Blackout Pants x Gunmetal Pants x Color Rush Pants

And you mix and match combinations from there. This is one of the best color schemes in sports. Capitalize.

Plus we need updated versions of our throwbacks where the gold matches on all the apparel.

The NFL limits the use of non-standard uniform usage to four times per season with either an alternate or throwback making up those four games. It was only three games prior to this season. It's not really up to the Saints as far as diversity .... it's mandated by the league.

Seattle has the Blue, White, Neon Green, Gray, and a Throwback. We should have a Black, White, Gold, Gunmetal, and a Throwback even if we rarely get to wear them. It's definitely a missed opportunity.

You can have primary regular home and away jerseys and pants. You can have Alternate which is the color rush ... white for us and neon for Seahawks. And you can have a Throwback.

They look ok I think. The important thing is all the black helmets with the fuggly fleur de lis checkerboard go straight to the landfill.

What? Why would we not have a winning record?
